One of the most recommended place to have breakfast in San Francisco (by TripAdvisor and Time) is Mama’s on Washington Square. We couldn’t agree more. The first time we were there on Day 2 of our trip, we waited for about 45mins outside before entering the restaurant. It was so good that we told ourselves …

We been seeing crazy queues at this particular stall selling Soya Beancurd and Lilian heard of raving reviews on how smooth and different the beancurds are here. But the long queues usually put us off. It …
Hup Seng Duck Rice is my favourite stall when it comes to braised duck rice.The perfect balance of the oil, the fats and the dark sauce never fails to make me drool. Popular coffeshops usually have one super stall that majority of patrons will order from. As the chinese saying, 一山不能藏二虎, having two super stalls in …
I love Yu Sheng (发财鱼生). I feel it’s the one dish that really symbolise Lunar New Year. You can find Bak Kwa, Pineapple Tarts and Love Letters any time of the year but Yu Sheng only appears during the first 15 days of Lunar New Year. And I have the privilege of eating really yummy home-made Yu Sheng …
Most of the stalls in Lau Pa Sat serve average tasting food at pricey food court price (in my opinion) but there are a few rare gems there that serve great tasting food. Mang Kiko’s Lechon is one of the rare gems. This stall serves mouth-watering Filipino Roast Pork and Chicken. The big roast station on …
